Okay, sure. I feel like big "plot twists" are better if there's at least some foreshadowing, which there was in the drama. IIRC, there wasn't in the book. The book feels a lot more like "oh yeah and btw all those chapters ago there was a golden core transfer, ta dah!"

I don't think it cheapened the scene because even with the illustration flashed across the screen, the audience doesn't know what that involves. They don't know just how much of a painful sacrifice it is for Wei Wuxian,so even if they know about the transfer, it's still pretty impactful to find out that it was a huge, huge deal that changed his life forever.

There was foreshadowing. You just apparently didn't catch it.

And not, the audience knew what it involved because they were told, repeatedly. Wen Qing told him, and by extension, the audience. It was very obvious and not even a little subtle.

But that's just.. dramatic irony. Watching WWX keeping secrets and watching his family burn down while you KNOW what the secret is and why he's doing it is really good! This is obv. an agree to disagree (and i'm late) but I think the deliberate change is from switching it to intensify the drama for the audience, not because it wanted to preserve the secret.
